Lots of progress has been made  I’m at a stopping point tho as i ran out of rice paddi lol more on the way.
Here’s a preview of the scene, I’ve managed to bend a 7/8” piece of acrylic to hold the jet. Glad i got ot that big as withe resin on it in addition to it’s overall size the rod actually deflects almost 1/4”

Very nice! The NMF scheme will look really cool over the vegetation of the base.

My goodness, that’s nice!
